Walking is a means to rebuild yourself.

Walking is a means to rebuild yourself. Our posture reflects so much of our journey through life-- from imitating those who you bonded with as a child, to bearing the compensatory scars of accidents and injuries both large and small, and the primal, sometimes crippling effect that fear, our most primal emotion, has on our muscles and bones. It is an exploration that is both a physical and emotional as we confront the why of our movement pattern and physical traits. But there is danger on this path. To quote the German writer Geothe “Know myself? If I knew myself I’d run and hide.”
